Hudson police discovered the livestream on Thursday, identified the male teen who carried the weapon, and determined he did not have a firearm identification card, according to the statement.
Police entered the home of one of the teens on Friday afternoon to execute a search warrant, according to the statement. The two younger teens were “verbally aggressive” toward the police officers and allegedly tried to order a dog in the home to attack the officers.
At one point, one of the 14-year-olds allegedly made physical contact with an officer, according to the statement.
DaSilva was asked by officers to step outside the home, where one of the teens was being detained. Officers allegedly witnessed DaSilva take the teen’s phone from them, according to the statement.

DaSilva and the three teens were arraigned in Marlborough District Court Monday.
